The monitoring of site A at Long Island Creek has yielded its results. As time progressed, the water temperature varied between 24 and 27 C. It was at its warmest at the last analysis. pH levels remained constant throughout the monitoring of site A. Oxygen levels varied between 6.2 and 7 parts per million. On days where the water was at it's warmest, the oxygen levels were at its lowest. The geophysical conditions of site A can be summed up as relatively shallow, with fast water flow. The first day that site A was studied, rainfall occurred 24 hours before. E. coli and coliform levels were above 1000. Those coliform levels began to drop over time. There are a few correlations that could be draw from the analysis, such as the correlation between weather conditions and the conditions of the creek site. For instance, it has been found in the analysis that as the higher the water temperature was, the lower the level of oxygen in the water. With drier conditions, bacteria levels dropped as well. The final conclusion is that the weather has played an influential part in this analysis.
